My kids are growing up so fast and its amazing that I'm starting to forget some of the quirky things they did as babies. I wish that I would have remembered to take the camcorder out more and have recently vowed to start doing so. I was recently sent the DXG Luxe 1080p Slim HD Camcorder so that I can capture as many memories as possible. This new stylish camcorder is available in red and purple - I went with the red.

The DXG Luxe 1080p Slim HD Camcorder combines HD technology and style in one device that's hip, hot and haute. It features a classic design that is inspired by the latest trends in fashion and will complement anyone's taste and personal style. This camcorder records real 1080p high definition video and captures still pictures up to 12 megapixels. It also boasts a 3" touchscreen display and an HDMI interface so it can easily be connected to your HDTV. This camcorder comes with everything you need to start recording your precious memories right away.

It came with a USB/AV combo cable, Lithium-ion battery, Charger, and Matching Case. The site says it comes with a SD card, but mine didn't have one. I had to go purchase one-I absolutely think one should be included. I'm extremely excited about the matching case because I will keep this in my diaper bag. The case will help prevent the camcorder from getting scratched or damaged.

The camera has several fun features. First of all, it is less than 1 inch thick so it takes up very little room. The screed flips out and can be turned to the front or back so you always know what you're recording.

The camcorder can take both pictures and videos which makes it where you only have to carry one camera around. It has a 3-inch LCD touch screen display and I can see what I'm recording very well indoors or out. You can set everything up by touching the screen-I keep wanting to press buttons.

You can make it darker or lighter when recording by touching the side of the screen. My only issue with this camcorder is that I can't figure out how to get it to zoom when in record mode. It will zoom while taking a picture, but not while taking a video. When I push the up or down button the option pops up but it doesn't allow me to do it. After reading the manual, it says the 1080p doesn't support the zoom function. I really feel like any camcorder should have zoom. Below is a picture of what happens when I try to zoom-that circle pops up in the middle.

Here is a random picture that I took with the DXG Luxe Camcorder. Evan was about to go down the slide on the other side.

This is a quick video of the double rainbow that we saw the other day. It was pretty dark and cloudy outside when I took it.
